I’ve been keeping my eyes out for the most strained and risible anti-Obama arguments on Iran. And I think we’ve got a possible winner. GOP operative Rich Galen went on CNN this afternoon to argue that when President Obama taped his special message to the Iranian people back in March (it was actually timed to the Persian New Year, but was part of Obama’s general outreach) that he got young people to think that if they took to the streets against their government that “help would be on the way” from Obama. Like if they just hit the streets we’d take care of bringing in the commandos or something.
